      F the insurance company. She has 4 kids, 2 of which will still need to be supported for a long time. If this were a single person, it wouldn’t be that big of a deal because she’s still young enough to be working. But there’s 4 kids, a lot of expenses, and they just cut out the payments…they should be ashamed

      The low balance on the loan is exactly why they targeted her. With the house worth over $300K and only $65K owed, that's over $200K of equity available for them to steal. They could sell it dirt cheap to a real estate company owned by one of their friends, and give the woman little or nothing from the sale.

Therefore banks seek to unload the property as fast as possible and at whatever price they can find.

So, long story short, the bank doesn’t give two iotas about your equity once they foreclose.

    I watched the video once, and then I kept watching it over and over again. IMO, the best video out there that gives hope. Dear Mr. Ramsey Sir - just so you know, I have followed you as I would have followed my dad if he was still alive. I have witnessed you helping many over the years, but this one takes the crown. It makes my teeth hurt when a bank threatens a widow, mother of 4 kiddos with foreclosure for being late on payment by 6 months?! She should thank her lucky star that she had the courage to call you, even better since she is a resident of the Nashville area. I saw in Dave the protective dad - fierce & gentle at the same time. You made my day Sir, you truly made my day...

      She made the right call today, I pray she gets the help she so needs both financial and a community around her to not let her or her children walk through grief on their own! God Bless her and her family!!

      I think they are kind of going thru standard operating procedures for a foreclosure. BAM! She's not on the mortgage? But shes on the deed. So they have no paperwork saying she owes them but she has paperwork saying she owns it. Complicated.

    Life happens. When my brother died of cancer my other brother was living with him helping him. He had no where else to live and was becoming disabled. It took me a lot of time to unravel the situation because my dead brother had never updated his Will. The house had slipped into foreclosure. My self and our sister got it out of foreclosure and paid it off. Really important to have family and friends. Honestly 3000 is not that much money. I have helped widows before in similar situations. There are Godly people everywhere. If you need help ask God to send one to you. Thanks Dave for helping this lady and her children. Our Father is pleased.

    My husband died at 42. We had life insurance, but since it was suicide, I did not get the insurance. I was ok financially until I got sick and had to stop working. My family helped out until I could sell my house and buy a condo with the equity from my home. The condo is small, but it is just me, so that is fine. It is all paid. It is so hard to deal with a death and still keep going and do the things for your family that they need. A

    My mom lost her dad & husband (my father) within 72hrs. Within two years she lost both cars, the house & everything my dad every worker for. She did this by blowing thru the life insurance w trips, shopping, partying & buying rounds for everyone in the bar. She even blew my son’s college money my dad left for us. She’s 67 & had to move in with her mother who’s 85. It’s soooooo hard to not resent her. She’s in absolute denial still 15yrs later. She has a victim mentality. But now she gets his social security & VA death benefits so she acts like she’s better than everyone. She’s financed two new trucks within the last 3 years.
